James and Regina Rabbit found each other on January 1. On January 11, Regina had their first litter of two bunnies, one of which was a girl they named Caitlin. On January 21, Regina and her daughter Caitlin both had litters of two bunnies, again evenly split between boys and girls.
All the rabbits lived together happily. They kept reproducing without fear of predators, old age, starvation, or disease.
X = the number of rabbits in the colony on March 15th.
Y = the number of rabbits in the colony on March 25th.
The cache is X feet west and Y feet north of the parking coordinates.
You can check your answers for this puzzle on GeoChecker.com.
In the area where the cache is hidden, you are likely to see cottontail rabbits and may see jackrabbits. The Colorado Division of Wildlife states that Eastern Cottontails, Desert Cottontails, and Black-tailed Jackrabbits are all in the county. Mountain Cottontails and White-tailed Jackrabbits may also be present, depending on the exact environment. Perhaps you will even see one of the many predators that dines on the rabbits.
Thank you to mtn_goat for the cache container! We got it at the White Elephant Cache Exchange in December, 2006 (GCZMZ4).
